Industrial Process Safety, a leading provider of process safety and risk management services, has announced the successful award of its first project in Iraq, marking a key milestone in the company’s expansion into the Middle East.
The project involves delivering comprehensive safety studies for a major client in Iraq’s industrial sector. These studies will focus on hazard identification (HAZID), hazard and operability studies (HAZOP), quantitative risk assessment (QRA), and emergency response planning, ensuring that the client’s operations meet the highest international safety standards.
Expanding Expertise into Iraq
Iraq’s oil, gas, and chemical industries are growing rapidly, and with that growth comes an increased need for robust safety systems.
“Safety is the backbone of sustainable industrial growth,” said [Spokesperson Name], [Designation] at Industrial Process Safety. “Securing our first project in Iraq underscores the trust our clients place in our expertise to help manage operational risks and protect people, assets, and the environment.”
